We enjoyed this unit! It’s located in a very upscale condo development. Residents are rich Chinese and expates working in Thailand. You are treated with white glove service from the staff. Communication with Petchara and her team is timely and courteous. ( They answered many random questions I had about the location, sights etc.)
We had one minor issue. The shower drain in the bathroom master suite was clogged. I used a chopstick to clear out the hair that accumulated, and the water flowed through like normal. Additionally, the intake process was not smooth. On the day of checking in we were asked to change the reservation to one month stay due to the condo policy. They changed it back to our original stay without any extra charges. We also had to wait an hour before we entering the unit. There was no clear instructions on how to use the keypad entrance and where the mailbox was located to find the keycard. All this information should have been prepared in advance for the guest. I provided this feedback to Petchara which I am certain will be addressed. Here are some tips about booking here.
Have Petchara provide the condo address in Thai. This will help the Taxis bring you back home. They struggled with the English address. Always ask the guard downstairs to call a taxi for you. They regularly wait outside the street. If you try to flag one outside the building, they’ll attempt to charge you without using the meter.
The major sights like Grand Palace, Chinatown are 30 minutes away. The condo is located on the outskirts of the city. Not pedestrian friendly The Big C grocery store is a 15 minute walk. 46bhat by taxi. The MRT is expensive. 150bhst for 4 people to Grand Palace. Taxi is the way to go when they use a meter. Use Grab if you can.
The Korean Embassy is located across the street. That was the landmark I used to tell the Taxi driver where the condo was located. There are food stalls in front but only the coffee cart I would trust. The food was mostly soups. The vendors appeared not to practice good hygiene Their customers mainly cab drivers. There is also a small strip mall and restaurants right outside the unit. It includes a 7-Eleven and Chinese restaurants and a Korean BBQ that cater to the Chinese residents who live there. Chinese food is Hong Kong style. Better choices can be found next to the Big C shopping mall. This was definitely a good pick and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this place to stay for your next visit to Bangkok!
